[QUOTE="BPM, post: 871401, member: 59968"] I had some sympathy for Fearns over the whole Burgess saga, but the Gloucester scenario puts things in to a completely different perspective. If he truly believed he was good enough he should made the move and done everything he could to perform at a level where Eddie would want to pick him. On the whole, Eddie seems to want to test players to see whether they have the right combination of humility balanced with self-belief and a willingness to do whatever it takes to succeed. Fearns did the opposite which is why he'll never win an England cap. Saying he'll play for France just makes him look like a merc. [/QUOTE]
